Wonderfull trip in Raja Ampat

We enjoyed every minute on the Mikumba II. We booked one of the Mater cabins, which was lovely decorated and gave us sunrise view every morning. The crew was awesome, always smiling, helpful with everything from food till diving. The boat is very spacious, so there is always a spot to sit by yourself, if you wanted to, but sitting together with the rest of the guests and enjoying the sunset cruises with a beer or well mixed Gin Tonic was one of the daily highlights anyway. And well, no need to talk about the spectacular diving. The dive crew always stayed in contact with locals and other dive operators, to avoid overcrowded dive sites. We can absolutely recommend going on a Safari on the Mikumba and would always come back!

The spacious boat, lovely crew, great diving!

Wow! My 5 days on Mikumba Dua was truly the experience of a lifetime!

I had an amazing experience on Mikumba Dua. As a solo traveller, it can be daunting to get on a boat with strangers for multiple days, but the passengers and crew felt like a little family. The mix of land excursions with the diving was amazing, it was nice to get of the boat for a little everyday and enjoy the surrounding islands. Food was fresh and healthy also. This was an incredible experience and I would stay on the boat again

The friendliness of the crew. Mix of land and sea excursions. Excellent dive guides.

Incredible

The diving is amazing of course. The boat is super comfortable. Not crowded, plenty of areas to either socialize or grab some alone time. The food was great with good variety and plenty of fresh fruit. The dovr guides were helpful and not overbearing. The boat staff were efficient and friendly. The owner was very interactive and kind and positive. It was a tremendously fun week - cannot wait to return. Would easily repeat the same trip without hesitation.

Fantastic Liveaboard Experience

I would recommend Mikumba 2 to anyone. With 10 divers and 2 DMs, it was the perfect size for diving Raja Ampat. They coordinated with other boats and smartly timed the itinerary to ensure we had most dive sites to ourselves. This was especially useful for sites with strong currents or where you’d want to hook in to watch the action at the head of the reef (I can’t imagine how chaotic it would have been diving some of the sites with 20 people). The DMs were great, Fadly kept us on schedule and was great at spotting nudis. Ardi really knows the different fish and talked with us for hours after dinner about the different fish and animals we saw. He’s also great at shooting video with his GoPro. Hugo (another DM/Cruise Coordinator) was fantastic and made sure that there was always something to do, kept us well-informed, and took care of any concern we raised. The DMs also worked with the less experienced divers in our group, making little adjustments and offering minor tips that really improved their bouancy. The food was also great — they gave us 4 hearty meals a day plus tons of snacks! Highlights were the Friwan Wall, Blue Magic, and Melissa’s Garden. We also saw Mantas and had amazing interactions with cuttlefish on our night dive (the bioluminescent plankton was so cool!). I got to see a gray reef shark, a white tip, and lots of black tips and wobbegongs. Damian (the owner) arranged our transit from Sorong to the boat which made getting there easy (it would have been difficult and confusing without the guide). It’s standard, so don’t worry. I just recommend coming in the day before so you are able to catch the 9am ferry from Sorong to Waisai

Jem is a gem!!! Thanks Mikumba 2 & crew for the magical week <3

The dive sites of Raja Ampat are absolutely breathtaking (SO much marine diversity WOW), and there’s no boat I’d rather experience them on than the beautiful Mikumba 2! Mikumba 2 had by far the most varied activities I’ve ever experienced on a liveaboard — we had multiple beach hangouts, paddle boarding in the mangroves, a beach bonfire, and a magical hike to the top of Piaynemo. Jem is the kindest, friendliest guy EVER and is such a joy to be around. He and every single member of the crew went far above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic stay on the boat. The crew members were so nice :’) they helped out so much with our dives, and the dive guides were so knowledgeable about all the wildlife (and GREAT at finding creatures of all shapes and sizes)! And the food, omg— every meal was a dreaaam. They varied from day to day and consisted of a mix of local (fried rice/noodles, beef curry, lots of fish, stir fried veggies, etc) and western food (bacon, eggs, pancakes, bread, the most amazing butter and Nutella, etc). Each meal ended with the most spectacular tropical fruit platter. YUM. A few pointers: make sure you’re comfortable with strong current (there is current in many Raja Ampat dive sites), and maybe bring earplugs since some of the downstairs rooms were a little creaky at night when the boat was moving. We love all of you on Mikumba 2!!!! And hope to be back one day!!!
